GPRN/NSCN has condemned the abduction and killing of its Regional Chairman, Angami Region, Kevingulie Yiesie whose bullet riddled body was recovered by the police on Saturday at Terhuoyiecha, Peducha village (Lalmati).
Publicity cell of the GPRN/NSCN Sunday said the killing has come as a “deep shock” to the Naga people and asserted that the enemies of the Naga people have cut down “another dear son of the soil.” It said the ‘brutal murder’ on the orders of few egocentric individuals at Hebron camp was “an act of cowardice.”
“His killing is a stark reminder to the Nagas that the political and historical right of our Nation is being dismembered to fulfill a great political debauchery,” the publicity cell said.
The GPRN/NSCN said its Angami region, under the leadership of late Kevingulie Yiesie had progressed immensely towards the path of unity and reconciliation of the Nagas.
“What he left behind is the dream that he dreamt for all of us. GPRN/NSCN shall pursue the historical and political truth of the Nagas that he courageously upheld till his last breath,” the publicity cell said. It described late Kevingulie as a doting father, a loving husband and a brave revolutionary who boldly stood for the cause of the Nagas.
The publicity said his loyalty and determination towards the Naga nation was unquestionable and that Naga history would remember his contribution and sacrifice.
It may be mentioned the bullet riddled body of Kevingulie Yiese (32) was recovered at Lalmati on Saturday at around 8 p.m.
Police had said that the deceased had gone to his residence at Medziphema but was abducted by suspected rival group in the wee hours Saturday.
